Migrants' protest convoy reaches Mexico City with complaints

A young boy carries a cross with a message that reads in Spanish; "Enough of the shedding of immigrants' blood," during a Mass at the the Basilica of Guadalupe, in Mexico City, Saturday, April 18, 2015. A group of Central American migrants, who made a pilgrimage to the Basilica Saturday, is caravanning through Mexico asking for greater protection for transiting migrants. Tens of thousands of migrants have disappeared while making their journey through Mexico, where they are vulnerable to extortion and abuse by both police and criminal gangs.
